[Verse 1]
Do me a solid, just let me be
No need to shout, don’t scream at me
You can talk, but whisper slow
I’m not deaf, I just don’t wanna know
Sit with me, and say nothing at all
Let the silence rise and fall
A sacred sound, a soft escape
Like freedom taking gentle shape
[Pre-Chorus]
Lay with me where the wild thoughts roam
Drop the weight, we don’t need to go
This is how I try to heal my mind
In the stillness I hope to find...
[Chorus]
Solace in the shadows, where I hide
Alone but not always terrified
It’s no longer just a way to cope
It’s become my skin, my marrow, my soul
I’m lost even when I’m in the light
Crowds don’t help when the heart’s not right
But in the quiet, I come alive
Yeah, in the silence... I survive
[Verse 2]
What once was comfort now turns cold
Too much quiet, and fear takes hold
It's fused with me, deep in my frame
A whisper now carries my name
Friends feel like strangers in the room
The words are empty, heavy too soon
And love starts to feel like a weight
I carry it just to keep up the shape
[Pre-Chorus]
So lay with me where we don’t pretend
No small talk, no need to defend
Just breathe in the space we share
No noise—just know I’m there
[Chorus]
Solace in the shadows, where I hide
Alone but not always terrified
It’s no longer just a way to cope
It’s become my skin, my marrow, my soul
I’m lost even when I’m in the light
Crowds don’t help when the heart’s not right
But in the quiet, I come alive
Yeah, in the silence... I survive
[Bridge]
I don’t need fixing, don’t need a cure
Just someone to sit with me and endure
Don’t fill the space with noise and fear
Just stay close... just be near
[Final Chorus]
Solace in the shadows, where I hide
You don’t have to talk—just be by my side
It’s no longer just a way to cope
It’s the only peace I’ve ever known
I’m lost even when I’m in the light
But silence feels like something right
So come find me in the quiet tide
Yeah, in the silence... I survive
